If you can make the site work under FireFox, WWW::Mechanize::FireFox has the `->eval_in_page()` method that allows you to run arbitrary Javascript in the context of a web page and transfer the result back to Perl. But it only works in FireFox, not in Internet Explorer.	[reply] [d/l]

Thanks for the suggestion - unfortunately the site doesn't work under Firefox - I even tried Firefox add-on UserAgent switcher to fake it. I don't know much about Javascript so I guess a bit of toil! I have found things like WWW:Selenium which sounds interesting (but haven't tried yet)	[reply]
